YUME ART - Dream to Reality

The story begins in Tokyo: a unique city with an astonishing energy level. in October 1998 my wife Anita and I stayed at the Intercontinental Tokyo Bay. On arrival at the hotel it was morning; the sun just starting to rise over the spectacular view in front of us it was one of those moments when you sense that something great is about to unfold.
Anita was the first to notice the art. Despite the beautiful light and remarkable setting in our suite, we simply could not take our eyes off the modern, yet distinctly Japanese piece on the wall.
A few weeks later we were able to meet the artist. This visit with Aijiro Wakita turned out to be the beginning of our passion for modern Japanese art, and ultimately the birth of a new company - YUME ART; dedicated to showcasing it.
